| - We tried this place after finding out that our regular sushi joint seems to have closed down (District Sushi).
I liked the cozy atmosphere. Despite the limited seating, we got a table right away at 7pm.
I had the steamed shrimp gyoza and the Black dragon roll. The gyoza were nice, and came with a nice dipping sauce...it was a bit different than you usually get. There was more flavour in it, and some fresh ginger I believe. The special rolls are all served nicely on ling wooden boards. Very nice presentation. The roll itself wasn't rolled very tightly though, so it fell apart as you picked each piece up. It tastes good though. Perhaps chef was just having an off rolling night.
My husband has the mixed sushi dinner. It was also very good and had some interesting tasting pieces of fish: 2 of them had a wonderfully smoky BBQ flavour. I wished I would have asked what those were!
The service was ok, except for 1 incident: as the waitress was clearing our appetizers, she spilled the gyoza sauce all over my husbands bag, which unfortunately is fabric, so the sauce soaked in and stained it. She apologized many times, and tried to wipe it off as best she could. I realize it was a mistake, and we weren't that upset (although the bag will need to be Dry cleaned).
I was expecting that because of this, that they might comp one of our appetizers or something, but when the bill came I saw that they hadn't. So I asked for them to do so, and without any fuss the waitress comped on of our drinks.
We will be going back to this place, as the food was quite good and the prices were very reasonable.
